Bump

w1
ends with gatebot gauntlets
wave is also fairly simple, might even be doable with just 400 starter?

w2
ends with gatebots again

w4
last part is a bit tame compared to first part

w6
feels like it could have more gatebots?
maybe have giant deflectors be gatebots?

w7
really underwhelming boss


Here's a demo file[demos.potato.tf] for our run.

Your gatebot deflector Heavies are really hard to tell they're gatebots, the colored star on the U-Clanka is really hard to notice. I think you should really just give them a regular gatebot hat.

Changes:
Lowered starting money to $400

Wave 1
Bat Scouts are now 50/50 bomb bots and gatebots
Lowered the spawn rate of the Gatebot Soldiers
Steel Gauntlets are no longer gatebots
Wave payout increased by $100

Wave 2
First Demos are now 50/50 bomb bots and gatebots
Lowered the spawn rate of the Force-a-Nature Super Scouts
Scouts are no longer gatebots

Wave 3
Giant Samurai Demos now only gain 800 health on kill and won't get overhealed
Lowered the spawn rate of the Giant Samurai Demos
Gatebot Deflectors now use the regular gatebot light instead of a painted uclanka

Wave 4
Lowered the spawn rate of the Giant Rapidfire Soldier squads
Replaced Heavyweight Champs with 30 Shortstop Scouts
Removed 1 Giant Burst Demo and increased their spawn rate

Wave 5
Scouts are now 50/50 bomb bots and gatebots
Giant Blast Soldier squads are no longer all gatebots + spawn rate lowered
Hyper League Scout support now starts earlier

Wave 6
Removed 12 Heater Heavies
Giant Deflectors and Gatebot Heaters now wait for the Crit Pyros and Backup Soldiers to be all dead
Gatebot Heaters now use the regular gatebot light instead of a painted bunsen brave
Second Tank health lowered to 25000
Second Tank will no longer attempt to cap the gate anymore (god bless)
Replaced Giant Steel Gauntlets with Giant Burst Soldiers (the Bigrock variant that everyone loves)
Support Bat Scouts are now 50/50 bomb bots and gatebots
Wave payout increased by $100

Wave 7
Remade into an actual wave
Whoops, another Tindall wave with Giant HoK Deflectors
And I broke my own rule of not using custom icons by including Kritz Meds...
Gate is no longer auto-capped when the wave starts
Wave payout increased by $600

Wave 1: Ridiculously easy, add giants or find some other way to make it exp without giants.
Wave 2: Insanely difficult for scout with all the engies around. Giant Pyros shouldn't have a 20% damage bonus.
Wave 3: Good wave. Personally, I kept getting confused about the gatebot deflectors since they had no U-clanka. I don't see why you don't give them both the U-clanka and gatebot hat.
Wave 4: Slow start. Not sure how to feel about the 6 sniper support.
Wave 5: Backups make this too difficult.
Wave 6: Good wave.
Wave 7: Really liked this wave.

My only complaint is the tanks are a bit weak throughout the whole mission and could all use a bit more HP (excluding the wave 7 tank). The mission hits 22 maxactive a lot as well, I'm not sure if this was meticulously planned or accidental, so I wouldn't count it against anything.

W1:
~Entire wave felt like steel trap adv difficulty. Could use some giants or something else to make the wave more difficult.

W4:
~Beginning is pretty slow, the rest of the wave was alright.

W5:
~Might be a bit overwhelming, but not outstandingly bad

Let's dust this off...

Changes:
Updated all relevant icons to those by our friendly neighbourhood NotYourSagittarius
(Specifically Bat Scout, Heater Heavy)
Removed "dodge" subroutine from all gatebots
Printed out some new name tags for Bat Scouts and Minor League Scouts

Wave 1
Sternly told the Gatebot Soldiers to attack in groups of 4 instead of 8, and at increased frequency
Kindly asked 5 Giant Rapid Fire Soldiers to go support the small guys who are all on their lonesome and gave them $20 each to work with
(Wave payout increased by $100)

Wave 2
Slightly lowered Force-a-Nature Super Scout spawn rate - because the Scouts and Demos at the end needed some company
Fired the Engineers due to customer complaints

Wave 3
Added glue to some parts of the tank, increasing its health to 25,000 from 20,000
Gatebot Deflector Heavies found their hats again
Slightly lowered Giant Samurai Demos and Black Box Soldier squads spawn rate

Wave 4
Stepped on the gas with some Force-a-Nature Scouts
Final sub-wave now comes out once the Heavies have all spawned rather than all died - they aren't monsters
As good as teams of six Snipers are, two of them got votekicked anyway
Fired one of the two Engineers due to customer complaints

Wave 5
Replaced Snackup Soldiers with Cronch Soldiers

Wave 6
Firmly bolted down some loose parts on both tanks, increasing their health to 28,000 from 25,000
Fixed a looping error in the Extended Uber Medics that caused their Ubercharge to last 2 seconds longer than it should (10 seconds, down from 12)

Wave 7
Welded some scrap metal to the insides of the first tank, increasing its health to 35,000 from 30,000
Taped some extra bits onto the final tank, increasing its health to 32,000 from 25,000

Pier Pressure

Lower any mission support with 4 or more desiredcount to 3 or fewer. Its just incredibly unfun to constantly have to deal with 4 snipers/spies

W4:
Just way too many shortstops, had them + 4 giant demos + 1 giant rapid soldier clumped up all together at one point. Do something to the shortstops and space out the giants. Lower the amount of sydney snipers active.

W5:
Was just way easier compared to wave 4, demo will show what the deal was.

W6:
Sniper cooldown was 5 seconds, literal constant sydney snipers has gotten pretty old by this point.

READ BELOW:
As of now, all missions that have yet to be accepted are on a three-strike system.

If your mission submission is not passed in its entirety within the next 3 tests, it will be disqualified. If your submission is disqualified it is a final decision. There will be no more opportunities for resubmission after disqualification.

If more than one week goes by between testing and the mission being updated, one of the resubmission opportunities will be docked.

This mission is on Strike 1

It might also be worth considering swapping waves 4 and 5 since they were the hardest and easiest in the mission, respectively.
